quantitative easing bond-buying program which it did at the october meeting. quote, some participants preferred to eliminate that language, however other participants thought that the considerable time phrase was useful in communicating policy intentions. in the end they decided to keep the phrase in. finally the minutes say fed members debated the advantages and disadvantage adding language to the statement to acknowledge recent developments in financial markets. all that market volatility last month. but they decided to keep that language out. melissa? dierdre: peter barnes -- melissa: peter barnes, thank you so much. i want to turn to my panel. look at market reaction. charlie gasparino, steve moore, heritage foundation chief economist there and fox news contributor. james freeman, "wall street journal." i love that, taking a considerable time trying to decide if they were going to use considerable time in their language. feels like they are slow at everything.

steve? >> almost like we're all monitorrists now. everybody on wall street, all your buddies, charlie, think the way to pump up the stock market think, that money is everything. >> i would say not everybody on wall street. >> some do. >> i would say this there is interesting sort of email going on around streets sent out by liberals on wall street show gdp in 2009 and gdp today. three or four economic indicators and 2009, today. it is all positive. the last one is the stock market. i will tell you this. this is what i think is going on here. no way janet yellen will speed up raising interest rates or do anything to stop this -- >> what about gdp? >> you want to talk about considerable time? next month makes six years of near zero interest rates by the federal research. if you're looking at stats, what people should pay attention to is era of slow growth. not what it should be. not what the united states numbers are capable. >> they will not deviate from

those numbers. melissa: steve moore. >> there is one statistic, charlie, none of your friend pay attention to, what the american people listen to and voters listen to, real take-home pay. >> hang on. one at a time. charlie, let him go. >> stock market investtores. >> i'm with you on that. what american people care about and reason democrats lost is pause people are not feeling the love. they're not, because they -- >> viewers are not the american people? they made a lot of money. melissa: i want to go to breaking news real quick. breaking news of jonathan gruber. we're learning the obamacare architect is stepping down as a financial consultant for vermont's state health care system. >> oh, wow. melissa: right. the office of the vermont governor saying that gruber will not do anymore work on the state's plan to build a single-payer system. he will also not collect the remainder of his $400,000 salary. meaning that what they have already paid him, he will get to

keep. >> he should sue. melissa: group of mit will continue on the project. >> is that 400,000 from vermont? melissa: yes, from the the statf vermont. >> 400,000 from the u.s. government and 10 other states. >> my view, he should have a lawyer to talk about this. this is wrongful termination. what did jonathan gruber -- what is his first name? melissa: jonathan. >> do but tell the truth. saying exactly what happened. he didn't lie. >> that is the problem he didn't tell the truth five years ago. >> it is not him. the president didn't tell the truth. melissa: that is fair point. i wasn't sure where charlie was going with that. >> this guy has a wrongful termination. >> he is telling truth now after being part of a conspiracy. he for years -- american people. melissa: i don't know. i agree with arm charlie. he was an economist who was hired to basically hide the truth. >> went behind closed doors. can't tell the american people -- melissa: hang on.

one at a time. one at a time. >> he did not perpetrate the fraud. president obama perpetrated the fraud. >> he talked about how he designed this fraud to fool the american people. i think behind the -- >> behindbehind the scenes desi. >> an accomplice. the question for the massachusetts institute of technology, why is, why are they still allowing him to run around with that name -- >> mit professor. >> but he didn't do anything wrong? >> didn't do anything wrong? this is the greatest consumer fraud in history. >> we all knew that for years. he came out and admitted it. you didn't know it was consumer fraud. >> this is antithetical a university ought to be about. why is mit. melissa: let him finish. >> why are they still employing him. >> jonathan gruber did not go out publicly giving speeches saying here is why -- >> no, privately -- >> did not say if you want to keep your plan you can keep your plan. melissa: let him talk. >> this is how you pull the wool over american people.

>> did he write a lie down? he created the plan. you understand the difference between lies and creation of the plan. >> what is he doing you now? he is telling you here is how we lied. he is -- >> no, he didn't. melissa: what he said was, here is how you disguise this tax and that it is acceptable. i don't know -- >> is not a lie. he did not go out in front of the american people and give speeches saying, you can keep your health care if you want to. melissa: right. that was a lie and fraud. >> here is how you can do it. >> he designed something to look like x when it is really y. that is what he did. that is completely legal. >> the other thing, why is it that these guys can make $400,000, you know they can get paid consulting free from the white house, i would like to know who else is getting -- there is a conflict of interest here here. there is lack of transparency, these guys, did he ever say he was a working with the white house. >> he was frequently used by the

laws supporters as objective voice. >> i'm pretty sure there were a few consultants in the bush administration. melissa: we're not saying it is right for the other side. he saying did anybody disclose this. >> i'm saying he has a wrongful termination suit for telling the truth. melissa: figures from the congressional budget office painting an eye-opening picture of america. 60% of households receive more in government benefits than they pay in federal taxes with 20% of earners footing bill for that one. this is one of those things where, we present the math. you decide how you feel about it. 60% of the population gets more from the government than they pay in. everyone should know that. >> romney say it was like 53% is? melissa: you may feel like that is fay fair. what do you think? >> there is a lot of good stuff in this cbo report. it basically shows, what a lot of us have been saying. we actually have a highly progressive tax system. melissa: already. >> the rich in this countrily pay more of the tax burden than

the income burden if you want to put it that way. of the tax pay is higher percentage of the overall than they're contributing to income. >> a lot higher. >> now what is also in this report is that it knockings down a lot more of picky numbers, when you count taxes and government transfer payments there is not a big jump in equality. not as bad as he said it was. i would add to it, phil graham and michael solen writing in our paper this week, new cornell university study shows when you basically correct the flaws in pickety. middle class incomes are rising 30%. they're not flat. they're not declining. >> you're absolutely right. but true in last 10 years under the last few years of bush and first six years of obama there has been no middle class growth whatsoever. i think that is the root of this economic anxiety. >> there is a lot of truth to that but i would say one other thing, the media. think about this, they put okay

pay wall street page one of "the new york times" on a lie. on a lie. this shows it was a lie. melissa: what is important about this, i of the conversation, that 60% of americans receive more than they pay in. it is never put out there as -- >> that's what democrat want. melissa: you may decide that is fine with you and that's right and top 20% should be supporting bottom 60%. it is up to you to decide but you need facts and math to make these decisions. >> to clarify the math doesn't mean everyone in bottom three quintile is takers. they worked all their lives and now get medicare. points out a huge amount of bill being paid. >> why it is so hard to cut the government because you have a lot of people say, wait a minute why do i want to cut government spending? i'm a net beneficiary. >> proves central tennant of liberalism and democratic party that the 1% made out. >> they pay 80% of the income tax. melissa: that was lively.

dierdre: a quick check on the markets. following the fomc minutes at the top of the hour the dow setting a new high for the day. still holding on to a majority of the gains today. so here he goes. president obama set to make a prime time address tomorrow night. the president is expected to announce executive action on the nation's immigration policies. the order is expected to give temporary legal status to millions of people in the u.s. illegally. that is according to sources, from dow jones. you can catch the president's comments live on fox business starting at 8:00 p.m. eastern. that will be a big talker no doubt. meanwhile, the republicans are vowing to continue the fight on the keystone pipeline? the latest bill falling short in the senate by just one vote

after a six-year fight, will it ever get built? here is fox business's tom sullivan. steve moore is back with us. along about stephen yates former deputy assistant to vice president cheney. thanks to all of you for joining us. steve, let me start with you, it fell one vote short. saying they will bring it back in the new year. starting to feel like this is not going to happen. what do you think? >> i think it is going to happen in the new year. they will have a vote and numbers should favor support of the pipeline. if you look where the republicans picked up a number of seats it should help this vote count go up. but i think everyone also realizes this is not going to be a dramatic change in the energy independence equation for the united states. it is just a move in the right direction, move in the right direction with relations to canada. >> stay on the topic of the pipeline. tom, the president can veto it at that point and wait until next year with new folks in and everything changes he could

still veto it. >> he may and i doubt it and i will tell you why. republicans will do this and will pass quickly in january but the president will use this bargaining chip to get something from the republicans. what this showed last night by the senate missing by one vote, it showed everything that people repudiated at election. melissa: that's true. hang on i want to play for you ceo russ girling said. steve, i will ask you to comment ahead. >> support for the project continues. it is growing. need for it continues to grow. production is up in canada. production is up in the u.s. we have move the safest way we can in a pipeline is way to do it so pipeline has to get bit. melissa: steve, he basically said the oil will be produced no matter what. question how it is transported. pipeline is safest for environment versus rails and trucks. by stopping pipeline you don't stop drilling. will it? >> that is what liberals hope.

they don't want oil, they don't want natural gas. they hate fossil fuels. tom nailed it. this reflects attitude of the democratic party where number one concern of voters when they went to the election night was jobs. number 30 issue was climate change. democrats voted for climate change and not jobs yesterday. melissa: this might have slipped through the cracks. not a great night for bills in the senate. bipartisan nsa reform legislation was shot down. this would have ended nsa collection of domestic calling record, requiring the agency to get a court order every time they wanted to collect these things. stephen yates, what do you think about this development? >> this is enormously complicated issue but i think this is one where i think that basically recent developments with isis and other kind of things, i don't think the country has been in the same place it has recent years where they think they needed to close down this kind of program whole cloth. so i think new congress will have to try to take up this issue of where is the balance between liberty and collection?

melissa: you want nsa to be able to collect this. tom sullivan, what do you think? >> first of all this would be very cumbersome for the government. they still could have gotten information. i'm a ben franklin fan on this one, don't give up freedom in return for safety. i think liberty is more important than anything else. you have to stay with that and protect your liberty. melissa: steve moore. >> i very rarely disagree with tom but i'm a hawk when it comes to the war on terror. you talk about liberty. where is your liberty when people blow up buildings and schools? if we can use these techniques to boil terrorist, i'm for it. -- foil terrorists. melissa: just when i think i know you guys you surprise me. >> my building was right across the street from 9/11, from ground zero. i think about that day every day. melissa: few stories on our radar. u.s. regulators want a takata airbag recall to go nationwide. until now the recall is limit to a few states.

expansion will affect millions of vehicles made by ford, honda and chrysler and others. millions may be unable to watch cbs. uh-oh. contract with dish network -- >> is this a bad thing? melissa: i don't know. i controlled myself. i went for the editorial comment there. no renewal is in site. cbs says dish is dragging its heels for the talks. celebrities supporting uber after remarks targeting journalists. ed norton and ash fun kutcher stand by the company saying it did no wrong. kutcher has an investor in uber so it is possible his money makes him conflicted on this issue. one man saying feywell to the real world and strapping this thing on his face for 2weeks. i think his girlfriend is really excited about this. i don't know why we assume he has a girlfriend. plus a it per chill sweeping the country. don't worry about stephen colbert.
